Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the pan)
- to taste lingonberry jam or your favorite jam (optional, for serving)
- to taste whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
Gradually add the milk while whisking to create a smooth batter.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition to ensure the batter is lump-free.
Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes while you heat the pan.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to grease the pan, swirling to coat evenly.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, tilting the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the pancake carefully with a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side.
Transfer the cooked pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Serve warm with lingonberry jam, your favorite jam, or whipped cream.
